Assistant Editors are entry-level with limited prior experience as a handling editor; they almost certainly have experience as an author, reviewer, and potentially as a guest editor or junior member of an editorial board, but are unlikely to have experience handling manuscripts through peer review.
How will you make an impact?
- Raise an integrity concern as a result of the SME screen/check via the appropriate channels.
- Evaluate new submissions for their suitability for the journal,
taking an immediate decision with the appropriate decision rationale, in line with the journal’s policy/scope.
- For suitable manuscripts, select and invite reviewers;
Assess reviewer report(s) and make decision to Accept/Reject/Revise/Refer manuscript (recent/transferred/revised submission).
- Assess revised manuscripts for the extent and quality of the changes made, and determine whether a final decision can be taken or whether further external review is needed.
In the course of manuscript assessment (before or after external review), when a reject decision is being rendered, identify appropriate journal(s) from within the portfolio as target titles for transfer.
- When a rebuttal is submitted, review the arguments and take appropriate action promptly: Pilot Projects/Special Projects Participate in proof-of-concept projects
- Report findings promptly within the stipulated timelines and framework
